Brooklyn’s Mahogany L. Browne, a prolific writer and important advocate for public art, is Lincoln Center’s inaugural poet-in-residence. She has written works of fiction, stage plays and critical essays to accompany her half-dozen poetry collections and another six anthologies as editor. Browne's recently released book-length poem, I Remember Death by Its Proximity to What I Love, explores the binding and boundaries of incarceration. For her Seen, Sound, Scribe series, Browne curates thought-provoking and politically driven evenings of spoken word, spirited conversation, and presentations of new work. Tonight's program features Cave Canem fellow and Affrilachian Poet Remica Bingham-Risher. Her work has been published in The New York Times, The Writer’s Chronicle, Callaloo and Essence. She is the author of Conversion (Lotus, 2006), What We Ask of Flesh (Etruscan, 2013), Starlight & Error (Diode, 2017), and Soul Culture: Black Poets, Books and Questions That Grew Me Up (Beacon, 2022). DJ Tiff McFierce, the first woman and Black woman assistant music director and resident DJ in the NBA and of Madison Square Garden for 8 seasons, brings the good tunes and good vibes.
